Another tactic. Become friends with all the local solder paste reps, get them to buy you lunch, etc...but the key is...get them to give you free samples. That way you wouldn't have to BUY any paste. As for the original fella, sounds like he's on a

And that's the key thing for an assembler. Who cares if the part is bone dry? Assemblers want to get the part dry enough so that soldering process does not destroy the part, so that he /she can move on to the next issue.

Double pass printing for solder paste is not needed and will cause defects. Redesign your stencil thickness or aperture sizes, change your paste mesh size or type, go to 45 degree blades.

Back in the mid 90s I used an SVS 3D solder paste inspection system. We used it as a stand along unit but it was an inline model. We would bring printed PCBs off the Dek 265 solder printers and check every 5 or 10 printed panels. They almost alway

JJB, Which machine are you using? How involved is the programming? Is it a 3D system? Many questions. Thanks Chris

We have an Agilent SP50 system. It is a 3-D system. The programming is pretty simple relative to some of the other machines we evaluated.
